Pond Update ....Day Three

We do have a little bit of water....lying in the pond, which is a good sign !

The sun came out, banking up and grading the sides, this will be the deep end...

View from a distance near to where the water markers are ....

Niggy ............ fast asleep tonight ..... on my knee !!

Heavy hail showers mixed in with lovely sunshine.... what weather !

The pond is coming along nicely.....today we have had glorious sunshine and hail-stones...a combination of all the seasons in one day !

The pond is about just over a quarter dug and is starting to take shape...it is still quite a way from being finished...but its coming along....

I managed to get all the boys in their proper field today.....with the use of a strategic piece of string ....stopping the gate from blowing shut, in the wind......so there were no alpaca antics today.

I have been tidying my barn out, putting a few tools away, after all those jobs...we didn't get time to do it before my parents went back home.

I am due a delivery of alpaca feed sometime next week, so I had to make some room before it arrives.

Tonight I thought I'd have a bit of a piggy moment....so I sat down in the shed...it wasn't long before Niggy came over to see me...he squeezed himself along my legs and went to sleep...

He looks so comfortable...I felt guilty when I had to wake him...so I could get up.....

Its one week today, since we took delivery of the new arrivals.....I think they have settled in just fine !
